At Dr Jenna Wa Skin Surgery, we often treat skin tags.. but what are they?


Skin tags are small, harmless growths of skin that often appear in areas like the neck, armpits, or groin. They’re soft, flesh-colored, and connected to the skin by a thin stalk. Common causes include friction, hormonal changes, and genetics. While they’re not harmful, many people choose to remove them for comfort or cosmetic reasons.


Are you bothered by skin tags? Book an appointment today for safe and effective removal.
